Abstract

It is well established that post-transplantation anemia (PTA) in renal transplant recipients (RTRs) is associated with reduced graft survival. However, there is an uncertainty of the effect of PTA on cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. We examined prospectively in a large cohort of erythropoietin-naive patients the effects of PTA on cardiovascular morbidity, patient survival, and graft survival.
